Hi all! I was thinking we need a game to play in this subforum. Here's what I propose:
If you post the link, you're welcome to start the ball rolling with your own story ideas. You also don't need to wait for people to finish talking about the last article before posting a new one.
I'll start with this:
Summary: South America was the Gilligan's Island of monkeys. 36 million years ago, monkeys from Africa traveled to South America via the ocean.
When Monkeys Surfed to South America
PS - I'm also amenable to humourous flash fiction pieces based on the article's ideas!
.
1) One person posts a link to a science article they find interesting and also summarizes what the article is about.
2) Commenters then brainstorm story ideas based on the science in that article.
Riffing on someone else's idea with your own variation is encouraged! Creating running jokes is welcome! Let's make Science Fact our playground. 2) Commenters then brainstorm story ideas based on the science in that article.
